Advantages: Works very well and no frost build up at all Disadvantages: Poor drawer front design
Fabulous freezer with no defrosting exactly as it claims. Unfortunately there seems to be a basic design flaw in that the drawer fronts on ALL drawers cracked within 6 months of purchase simply as a result of normal pulling open of the drawers. The plastic seems too brittle. All were replaced (but the entire drawer- not just the clip-on fronts...) and for a further 8 months all is well. Yesterday one drawer shattered completely when pulled open- ...
Advantages: Easy to use, frost free, energy efficient Disadvantages: None
...is relatively small.
The Hotpoint FZ150P is an A rated energy efficient freezer which means it is the best energy efficient rating possible and could mean you get substantial savings on your energy bill. This freezer is currently available in what is called Polar white or silver and retails for around £300 although you may need to shop around for cheaper prices.
I decided this time that I wanted a freezer not to dissimilar in size and shape to ... ...of the freezer. The Hotpoint FZ150P was Frost free and I bought it. It was also sold to me with two other conditions and they are:
A Super Fast Freezing which means within a few minutes your food will be frozen quicker to ensure the taste and texture is preserved rather than within a normal freezer it could take a few hours and it has been given a star rating of 4 for freezing which means it is considered to be one of the best freezers available, ...

Review of Hotpoint FZ150G
Advantages: large capacity, silent running, A rated, relaible temp gauge, even freezing, easy to wipe clean Disadvantages: none really unless you dont have space for one
...I knew I wanted a Hotpoint or Whirlpool, having experienced the very best of customer service previously when needing a repair from these two companies, not to mention the low cost of out of warranty repair by an engineer. Scouting about, I found this model seemed to fit all my requirements, and the price was quite reasonable as well, being under £500. So, a year on, how have I found this? To be quite honest, I am so pleased it is almost ridiculous. ... ...shallow one, made for ice cream, ice cubes (trays included, as well as a drinks cooler board for taking on picnics) and the like, and the bottom most one is deep but has a sort of triangular bottom to accomodate the inner workings of the freezer. The other four drawers are deep and fairly wide as this freezer is roughly the same size of a full sized fridge freezer. The door is reversible, so you can hang it either side, which is very convenient as ...
Advantages: Huge Disadvantages: No Auto Defrost or Frostfree
...We have a very good Hotpoint fridge/freezer as per my previous review but this just does not provide us with enough frozen food storage space which is why we went out and bought a chest freezer from Focus. We were very lucky as when we saw it our local branch was closing down and we managed to pick up the display model of the Hotpoint RCAA53P for only £120 it was in brand new condition with warranty and all the instructions and they even delivered ... ...not complain at the price, Hotpoint is one of our favorite brands as we find them super reliable even if a little expensive for spare parts.
This freezer we knew when we bought it would not fit in our kitchen at all so we had decided that it's home would have to be out in the conservatory and boy does it take up a fair bit of space. I set it up as per the very detailed instruction booklet and then left it for the night to settle down, setting up ...

Review of Hotpoint RCAA53P
Advantages: Good price for frost free Disadvantages: The drawers don't slide very well and feel flimsy
My reason for changing the freezer was simply that I hated to defrost the old one. After a very long search, this was the best priced frost-free freezer that I could find which was also made by a reputable manufacturer. I would have liked one slightly taller but the height of my old one seems to be obsolete these days. My only problem with this freezer is that the drawers, particularly the bottom one, slide open and closed very poorly, occasionally ...
